N>Kiel dungeon, thanatos tower, and lighthalzen!

Also - Abyss lake sucks without spawn increases, only makes sense to increase spawns so it's on par with the current maps with increased spawns.

Update OCA's if you're implementing new areas.

Unless they messed up during maintaince and Hydro mob will continue to give exp. Then increases spawn rate isn't needed =D

The following items drop in tradable form (essentially like a box), but when you double click to equip it, become account bound.

Fricco Shoes
Morpheus's Ring
Morpheus's Armlet
Magni Cap
Fricca Circlet
Morpheus's Hood
Morrigane's Helm

But... why? What is the point of making these items untradeable? I simply don't understand the logic behind a decision like this. All you are accomplishing is making these items less desirable to own, and making it harder to gear alts and new players. Particularly the magni's cap, which is really the only useful item out of that list, is only a useful item when you can make or buy a highly upgraded one, and then use the set bonus across various characters. Making the item account bound makes it lose most of it's value, as well as making it impossible to sell or trade after upgrading.

I think making random items account bound is a really terrible idea, it isn't fun for players who play in groups, and making group play more annoying seems like the opposite of what design goals should be for an MMO. I really don't see what the problem with these items being normal and not customized is.

What is the reason for this change?

[iDanii]

• Double drops and exp remove

That means im gone, bye. BTW, i hate you

[Magefist]

Yay to Green Ferus Card!!

[Ambur]

Ruin the game some more with this account bound bull-_-.

[iDanii]

I'll give you a dollar to keep double EXP in.

Or just double the effectiveness of manuals. Cashmoneyyy.

Double exp!
RO original exp is a joke. Most of us can't spend that much time lvling anymore.

+10 foods will be leaving the store next week
Classic Boxter arrives next week

Why do you hate upgraders? They pay more in KP than most people for enriched. I'd rather be able to break this crapola when my storage inevitably gets full of it and stand a chance of getting rid of it, than just npcing it. Ingame economy is a really good thing and part of whaty makes RO, RO.

Also, this isn't exactly high end gear. Aside the Fricca circlet /magni cap most people keep that crap at +4 for a reason. Instead of putzing around changing RO into a new game (the clue is in the fact that people came back to CLASSIC RO) - why not go fix some real issues or handle some cheaters?

Yea, I dont see the point. It's not like you can card them like the valk sets.


Edit: They must be planning on slotting these things.

Short term memory strikes again, it's like noone remembers what was said on the forums before the classic server went online:

Highest Tiered Gear will drop from monsters in Tradable Boxes. Once the box is opened the gear will be account bound. This is to keep those high tiered items limited to those high Tiered characters capable of acquiring them rather than being taken/shared among many. This also will keep them valuable in the economy for a much longer period of time. This feature will not be noticed for a very long time as those monsters that have the items will not be available at the start.

[Ambur]

So why is the Chaos server down if all of these fixes are for Classic? Are there going to be things done to Chaos as well during this time?

Renewal has a different section for patch notes.

[Zeca]

account bound items makes no sense in a game like ro.
you should be going the other way around and making the contents of the september boxes tradable, not introducing new gears into this retarded box form. and those arent even high end gears.

seriously, whoever makes those decisions not only know nothing about the game/its economy, also know nothing about pleasing your customer base.
good job pissing off even more people.

[Xellie]

Was against it then. Still against it.

This is high tier gear? el oh el.

Anyway, if I wanted to play international Ragnarok-pretending-to-be-world-of-warcraft Online, I think I'd be playing RO2.

edit: also yes, unbind the stupid pencil, pirate dagger. rideword hat etc. I'm tired of explaining to newly returned veterans why they have to be subpar to other players until the next p2w event.

Care to point out which item on that list is "Highest Tier Gear"?

Hint, if you think any of them are, you are bad.

milking players with more than 1 VIP account

[vaxel]

I like and dislike account bound items. It makes it so that you are encourage to play one account. But also you cannot sell them to other players

You forgot Morrigane's Helm

[Jaffer]

IT MAKES YOUR CAST UNINTERRUPTABLE. THIS IS MOST DANGEROUS CHAMP GEAR.

Seriously. Shooting yourselves in the foot and screwing over lucky and unlucky players. What of all the people that buy guy to overup them with Enriched Ores? (People not like me) Or the people who trade Kafra Crap to buy overupped gears because their luck sucks? (Like me!)

You've essentially doomed people to have bad gear. The solution to the saturation of high tier equipment is to not give people 9x drop rates versus MvPs, not screw them out of gear. Now I have to cope with my horrible luck versus the Stat Enchanter? Balls.

This pretty much. Some people like upgrading their own gear and some do not. Why are you taking away the choice of getting someone else to upgrade the gear for you and paying a higher price? I don't understand why you seem to like shooting yourself in the foot.

People want classic RO, we don't want world of ragnacraft or whatever customized game you are trying to make. Stop trying to improve on a game that we already like. We liked the game back then, we want to play the game as it was. We don't want these changes. I don't understand why you are so stubborn.
